| Description of the problem | The two rear tires were "out of round" at 6,943 (3/29/00) and replaced. At 12,289 (7/25/00) the driver's side front tire had a flat which was repaired. 3 out of 4 new tires isn't a fluke. I replaced the tires with michelen symmetry tires on 9/12/00. The dealer & manufacturer haven't responded personally to this problem. They seemed unconcerned about my safety concerns. *ak (dot number: w2vf tiresize: p215/65r15) |
